When you shop or sell at Melrose Trading Post, you support youth and education at Fairfax High School. In 1997, Whitney Weston and Pierson Blaetz co-founded Melrose Trading Post through their nonprofit Greenway Arts Alliance, building communities through art, education and enterprise.

Through admission and vendor fees, your support helps provide jobs for students, and fund field trips, sports equipment, beautification projects, teacher programs, theatre productions, and more, totaling well over seven million dollars to date.

The Melrose Trading Post showcases local musicians every Sunday on the Greenway Arts Main Stage and the Greenway Court Corner Stage. Local musician and coordinator, Martin Diller, curates the line-up on both stages every Sunday.

The LA Metro can get you to MTP Fairfax pretty easily. Use Metro.net to find the easiest route from where you are to the corner of Melrose and Fairfax Avenues.

Bicycle riders are our favorite!

There is a bicycle rack on the East end of the food court. Enter from the Melrose Avenue entrance for closest access to the bicycle rack. Please provide your own lock. MTP, Greenway Arts and LAUSD are not responsible for your property.
